The Baltimore Ravens are gearing up for another exciting season, with a roster that includes several fantasy assets capable of producing big numbers in both the short and long term. From QB Lamar Jackson’s dual-threat abilities to the talents of Derrick Henry and Zay Flowers, this team has a few players who could be critical to your dynasty team’s success. In this edition of the "Relevant Player" series, we’ll take a closer look at these three key players.
Lamar Jackson: The Dual-Threat Quarterback
Lamar Jackson has long been one of the top fantasy quarterbacks, and his ability to rack up points with both his arm and his legs makes him a consistent fantasy juggernaut. Despite some ups and downs in his supporting cast, Jackson remains one of the safest investments at the position.
2024-2025 Fantasy Production: In 2024, Jackson finished as the top fantasy QB, throwing for 4,000+ yards and over 40 touchdowns. His rushing ability, accumulating 900+ yards and 4 touchdowns, keeps him firmly in the elite tier of quarterbacks. Jackson’s ability to both create explosive plays with his legs and make throws downfield ensures his fantasy relevance for years to come.
Dynasty Value: At 28 years old, Lamar Jackson is in his prime and should continue to be a reliable fantasy asset for the foreseeable future. His combination of rushing and passing ability is rare, and he’ll remain a key piece of your dynasty roster as long as the Ravens maintain their commitment to his play style.
Derrick Henry: The Ground Game Veteran
At 31 years of age, many doubted Henry's ability to stay healthy and produce. However, his 1st season in Baltimore defied those expectations, and not only did he prove many doubters wrong, Henry ended up with one of (if not the) best season of his career. He is still going strong even though he is now entering his early 30s, and while the bottom could drop off at any time, Henry has currently shown now signs of slowing down any time soon.
2024-2025 Fantasy Production: In 2024, Henry posted over 1,900 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns, solidifying his place as a high-end RB2 with upside. His ability to contribute both between the tackles and as a workhorse back in a run-heavy offense makes him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues.
Dynasty Value: Henry, even though he's 31 years old, is currently a great dynasty buy. His combination of talent and ability to (so far) keep away from father time means he still has plenty of room to continue to be a force. If he can stay healthy, Henry still has the potential to be a top-tier RB1, especially in a Ravens offense that will likely continue to lean on the run game.
Zay Flowers: The Explosive Wide Receiver
Zay Flowers brings an exciting dynamic to the Ravens’ passing game. His combination of speed and agility makes him a dangerous weapon in the open field. Now heading into his third year, Flowers is starting to prove why he was a key part of the Ravens’ rebuild.
2024-2025 Fantasy Production: In his second season, Flowers took a step forward after a promising debut. He had had three fewer catches then he did as a rookie, but totaled 200 more yards, finishing with his first season of over 1,000 yards receiving to go with 4 TDs. His ability to stretch the field and his chemistry with Lamar Jackson are already evident, making him a player to watch as he continues to develop into one of the Ravens' top weapons.
Dynasty Value: Flowers, just 24 years old, offers a tremendous amount of upside. As he prepares to enter his 3rd year in the NFL, Flowers has the potential to be a WR2 with upside, possibly even a WR1 in the near future.
The Baltimore Ravens are home to several fantasy players who can make a significant impact in both the short and long term. Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry, and Zay Flowers each offer unique fantasy value, and all three should be considered for your dynasty squad. Whether you’re looking for a reliable quarterback, a veteran running back, or a solid 3rd year wide receiver, the Ravens have what you need to bolster your roster.
